(Images from Walt Disney Pictures)More than 70 years after The Wizard of Oz blew audiences away in all its Technicolor glory, James Franco and company will attempt to do the same in Oz: The Great and Powerful. Check out the trailer below along with the latest news on the coming Oscar battle, Kristen Stewart's latest red carpet look, and details on the strangest pairing of director and boy band we've ever encountered.
Trailer 2: James Franco and the Three Witches
We've got a new extended trailer for Oz: The Great and Powerful, and this time we get to see a little more of the plot. James Franco is Oscar (easily shortened to Oz) Diggs, a small-time magician aspiring to greatness who's sucked into a tornado in a hot air balloon. "I don't want to die," he shouts. "I haven't accomplished anything!" But really this whole thing is kind of his own fault for taking the hot air balloon out for a spin during a tornado storm.

He's whisked from the black-and-white dreariness of dust bowl Kansas to the overly saturated Oz, where he's hailed as "the chosen one," a wizard tasked with saving everyone from the Wicked Witch, whose identity is still being kept secret. Is it Mila Kunis or Rachel Weisz? Or is it all a trick to set us up for Michelle Williams as the evilest witch of all?
Highlights include: James Franco sliding around in a Scrooge McDuck-sized pile of gold coins; evil flying monkeys; Zack Braff voicing a scared good monkey; Michelle Williams and Rachel Weisz fighting Harry Potter-style, wands and all; and Franco and Kunis kissing in the Dark Forest.
